FS, 3 month used AA Supercharger kit (rotrex) for e36 i6 application (328, M3). Includes everything except for software. I have a 2.8 ECU which I can also sell with FI software already (socketed by AA for simple upgrades to software by simply changing the chip - additional $500.00).

umm buy it for me... im broke too fab,, this thread is a month too late, i just bought a 50" tv and new funiture, so i cant afford it.

;) no the visions won't fit my car (non-M offset), I'm looking to get another set of BBS rims with R Comps, run the 9" ones that I have now up front with the other set of 10 inch backs... make me an offer. I need to get rid of this one and the GF is complaining its taking up space.

One question, how much km is on the supercharger?

JazzM

10-07-2005, 10:53 AM

There is about 6,000 km on the SC. I used it for about 3 months, the installer didn't install it right and my engine piston rings gave up.

For the money I'd be seriously looking into this, I know it's a centri, but how else are you going to get 246rwhp for $4500. And this probably puts how more power with an M50 intake manifold and M3 cams. Tom, did you ever get it dyno'd with everything?

JazzM

10-07-2005, 02:59 PM

I had the exact same setup as you... M3 cams and M50 manifold along with headers, exhaust, pulleys and fan delete. My guess would be around 275-280 at the wheels or about 330-340 at the crank.

:confused: Rings gone because of your charger. How much boost dose that thing run. :confused: It dosen't run high boost so how could it kill ur rings. Well boost is boost if it's turbo or a changer who cares.

There is about 6,000 km on the SC. I used it for about 3 months, the installer didn't install it right and my engine piston rings gave up.

...that would be the kit for the 328...im talking about the one for the m3, but jazz has already answered my question.

Yes, rings can go easily if you boost the crank case. :mad: *thmbsdwn*

I cannot stress enought that you get someone competent to install this kit to whom ever ends up buying it. I strongly recommend Munich Motors to do this job as they've done several SC installs before and they have a good grasp of what they are doing. All in all they are excellant mechanics.

Okay. well if I buy the white e36 for sale on this board. I'll buy this kit from you also!! so hopefully you don't sell it within the next week while I make my decision.

is this one of the best kits you can buy? how much is it new?

what else do I need to boost an E36? you said an ECU?

This kit new is 6500 USD + shipping + duties + taxes. You will need software for it. MarkD can probably help you out with this and you'll need a competent mechanic to install this. I can recommend you a place if you like.

For the price/performance, this is one of the best kits out there. It is the only kit in this price range with an intercooler.

Let me know how it goes with the car :)

how much is a S/C install anyways? and are 328's 170.1 HP stock? I thought they were 191 rwhp. Guess not:(

JazzM

You're looking at about 12 hrs for the install...

328's are 169 RWhp stock or 189/191 BHp

The last thing I do is abuse my car. It gets driven, it gets maintained. Abuse would be me driving it down a flight of stairs.

As much as I'd like a blower, I still have my heart set on a twin screw, and I don't have the cash to buy this blower anyway.

Yeah, AA socketed the ECU for me with M3 cam and M50 manifold software for the 2.8. Dyno'ed at 268 RWHp and 238 ft-lbs. That's slightly more than a 328 supercharged with a stock engine (255 RWhp/228 ft-lbs)

boomer

02-08-2006, 04:46 PM

I am interested in your AA system. I have a 1996 328i. I would like to know exactly what else I need for the system to function correctly on my car. How much exactly is the software? I don't want any suprises or piston ring failure. Why exactly did your rings fail anyway? Was it a detonation issue? You can email me at boomincaraudio@yahoo.ca thanks

JazzM

02-08-2006, 05:07 PM

The reason for failure was a bad installation. The installer who put the kit on ended up boosting my crank case hence the reason for blown rings. Make sure you get it installed correcty.

You will need software for your kit. There are several options that you have with regards to that. Locally you can go through either MarkD (on this board) or even superchips. Otherwise you can send your ECU for programming to AA.

Other than that you won't need anything else. Again, can't stress enough how important it is to get a competent mechanic to install this kit for your if you're not mechanically inclined. Installation instructions are also included on CD. Installation is estimated to take about 12 Hrs.

T.

thinair

02-08-2006, 07:25 PM

So the chip (not the ECU) isn't included with the kit?

JazzM

02-08-2006, 07:29 PM

I'm throwing in my ECU as well... if the new owner can make use of it that's good. In order for them to use the ECU they will need to work out the issue with EWS (disable it, etc..). The ECU/software is for a 2.8L application.

It'll probably be easier, faster and better to just simply get your own software...

What exactly do you mean by ".. boosting my crank case"?

JazzM

02-09-2006, 09:17 AM

One of the vacuum lines from your intake manifold goes to the crank cast to provide vacuum. The installer didn't block that line off as was specified in the instructions. Hence when the boost hit, it would also presurize the crank case.

T.

Furious

02-09-2006, 11:22 AM

im assuming that all the piping and what not was actually for an M3 and just the software was set up for a 328? im only asking because ive contacted AA and said that if the kit was for a 328, that it wont bolt onto my car's engine

.. .basically was this a 328 kit? or an M3 kit to start?

JazzM

02-09-2006, 11:45 AM

2.8 kit. The 2.8 and M3 kits are the same, only difference is the software.

2.8 kit. The 2.8 and M3 kits are the same, only difference is the software.

My installation CD outlines some minor differences in plumbing which you could probably fabricate out of exhaust tubing. Other than the s/w, the two applications are the same as far as I can see.

kenmar

02-09-2006, 01:53 PM

Sorry, I forgot that the M3 also comes with a larger intercooler. The smaller bumper on the non-M cannot accomodate it.

JazzM

02-09-2006, 01:59 PM

Please not also this is a 2004 kit. The current kits on sold by AA are slightly different (and most likely used the same intercooler whereas presently the M3 has a slightly bigger one).

T.

greekthang

02-09-2006, 02:14 PM

JazzM not to kill your post but people have to be aware that are interested in buying this kit that if they need the software it will run them about $400-$500U.S. so add that onto the price of the supercharger. Needless to say though this supercharger kit sounds like its in great shape and a great deal. Free bump
